Huge-sounding moments of that ilk are frustratingly lacking elsewhere on Unstable, though, with many of the tracks offered up here, like Addicted and Negative Noise, straying into competent yet not altogether memorable territory. The saving grace comes by way of lead guitarist Diamond Rowe, who elevates many of the tunes with some superb solos and soaring melodies, with the playing on Sick Of You and, in particular, Trust Me demonstrating the raw talent that lies within the band.
The cumulative result of these peaks and valleys is a record that showcases a band still early on in their sonic development. But rather than the sound of instability, the main takeaway is a promise that, with a little fine tuning and experience under their belts, great things may just come Tetrarch’s way.
Verdict: 3/5
